March My Monthly Hero Kit Hop...

Hello there! I am so excited to be hopping along today with some amazing crafters. Today we are sharing the March My Monthly Hero Kit. When I saw the kit, I got pretty excited and created 4 cards. So hang in there with me because I have a few pics to share today! The full list of products available are linked below, as well as a full list of stops on today's hop.

First off, here is a photo of this months kit....

"The Beautiful Basics March 2018 My Monthly Hero is a collection of all-purpose messages and icons in a modern style, with lovely script message dies for them to coordinate with or use alone. Additional dies included will frame your designs in shapes of banners, tags and bubbles. We've added neutral iridescent and metallic sequins, high-quality basic cardstock in black, kraft and white, Unicorn pigment ink and a silver sparkle embossing powder, all to help take your greetings to the highest level."

I have four cards using pieces from the Hero Arts kit but I have also added in several add-ons. This first card showcases the new Smile Stamp and Cut along with the Bold Graphic Confetti Die....

I did a little ink blending on the background, then added the Confetti die over the top in vellum. I added the "smile" die and sentiments on the card front with a few little dew drops for detail.

The Every Which Way Stencil grabbed my attention and, of course, I saw it and thought it needed a rainbow....

I used some Distress Oxides to create the background and then added that gorgeous hello die cut to the front of the card. I grabbed a few more dew drops...well...because I want to use them on every card. :)

I adore the Hello There sentiment from the kit stamp set. I inked it up with a Hero Arts Ombre ink pad and then colored over the shadow with a black pen just for a different look.

I used the confetti image from the kit stamp set in a light gray in the background and then went back in with one of the stars inked up in black. I added a couple mats under the sentiment and then popped it up on fun foam to finish off the card.

Finally my last card...

I used the Alphabet Window Fancy Die with a pice of alcohol inked up yupo paper. I love all the color in this. This die would make the best teacher card so I added the "thank you" die in black cardstock.

Here is a quick shot of the add-ons linked below...

WOW, Laurie, all four cards are very striking! Love the vellum overlay, Every Which Way rainbow, Hello There marquee and of course, your colorful alphabet thanks. Great showcase of the kit and then some.

Beautiful cards and wonderful use of the kit contents-without add ons too. Love what you did with the Hello There. Will have to try that once I get my kit. Love the shadowing. And, of course, I'm loving the first 2 card backgrounds. That graphic confetti die in vellum is a nice touch over that colourful background. Then there's that every which way stenciled background. Gorgeous!! I'm regretting not buying it. No matter how it's done it looks amazing!! Next time I guess!

There is so much goodness in this month's kit and the way you've used it is really beautiful! I couldn't choose a favorite if I had to. I love color and you knocked it out of the park with all the beautiful colors you've used. The confetti die, the sentiments and the shimmer spray are things I MUST have! Thank you for sharing and for the inspiration!
